@wcsdancer2010 @ihaveittoo they didnt tell me which type i have. But im pretty sure its hsv2 because i have the bumps in my vagina not my mouth. The gyno didnt take a blood test she did a swab test of my bumps and it came back positive. We are still waiting on the results for my boyfriends blood test. He hasn't been having any symptoms so I'm sure he doesn't have it. I may be wrong though.

Thanks for the help. My meds finally started working I'm no longer in pain at the moment

So I just found out I have herpes. I was perscribed Acyclovir. It's only been a day and a half. I was not prescribed any pain medications because they told me they couldn't perscibe me any, which is very odd. But anyways I have about 3 bumps in my genital area right by my opening. They hurt so bad that I can't sit, walk, or even use the bathroom especially because it burns. And I recently started noticing my inside butt itching and now its starting to burn and feel like ihave a bump there too. They told me to take at least 400mg ibuprofen but that isn't working at all! I'm dying of pain and I was wondering if I could take any stronger meds while taking Acyclovir. I am also on birth control called Ocella. I have some hydromorphne and tremadol and I want to take it so bad but I'm scared of what the consequenes might be if I do take it.

Hi my name is Luna I am 22 years young. Before I was diagnosed I was feeling really ill and my kidney was hurting and my vagina was in intense pain so I went to the ER and they ran blood tests and a piss test and I was told I had a kidney infection. They perscribed me pain meds and antibiotics and after I finished all my medicine 2 days later I noticed 3 bumbs down there. I have 2 on the right side and one big one on the left side of my hole that is halfway in and halfway out. I am in so much pain from these bumps I can't walk or sit. It especially hurts and burns whenever I go to the bathroom. So I decided to see an OB/GYN and I had a well woman's exam done and she took some swab tests of my bumps and She told me that she was 99% sure I have herpes. No be in mind before all of this I have been feeling really depressed but when she told me the bad news it just made every thing a million times worse. I said there was no point in me living anymore. I was upset because I thought my boyfriend was going to break up with me. And I was saying how no one who doesn't have it isnt going to want to be with me. Me and my boyfriend have been together for about 6 months. And within those six months I thought I was healthy, until about a week ago when I was diagosned with a kidney infection and now herpes. I find it odd that all this stuff started happening to me just all of a sudden. I don't know why and it's really eating away at my brain. Its all I can think about and I cry every time I think about it. I know I have been faithful and I know my boyfriend has been faithful because we are together everyday and because he hasn't been showing any symptoms. I know that its possible I could have gotten from one of my past boyfriends. Or he could have it and not know it. I was scared to tell him at first because I didn't want him to think I cheated and then break up with me. He was upset at first but after talking to him and explaining things to him he's much more understanding of it. He went and got tested today and we're waiting on the results. We had a long talk and I was crying because I didn't want to break up with me. He told me that he's not judging me and that he believes me that I have never cheated and that he wants to give me the benefit of the doubt. After talking to him I feel so much better just knowing how understanding he is of all of this and I can really see that he really does love me for me. I'm so happy and thankful to have such an understanding boyfriend. Another thing is I just recently got hired at a new job which we are very happy about. I just wanted to add that I'm not trying to brag I just wanted to say that even though I have herpes its not something I have to sit and dwell and be depressed about. You can still have a normal life and postive things can still happen you can still be happy. It's just all crazy how much me and him have been thru in these past 6 months. We been in about 2 car accidents together. Plenty of bad arguements that could have broken us up and I feel like this situation is making us stronger as a couple. I know having herpes is something I have to live with for the rest of my life and me crying about it wishing I was dead isn't going to change anything. I've realized there's nothing I can do about this except try to stay positive and try not to stress over it. It's only been a day since I've found out. I used to think why would god give me this why me? But I have come to terms that it's my fault. I made the bad choices of not using protection in my past. Before I was diagnosed I would pray to god that it wouldn't be herpes but I'm now realizing that maybe I got this for a reason... For me to not take things for granted and wish I was dead when I was perfectly healthy and had nothing to even be depressed about, For me and my boyfriends bond to grow even stronger. God only knows. God throws things at us that we might not understand now but later we will see, that everything happens for a reason. I just wanted to share my story and some insight on my feelings. I know it was a lot to read but maybe someone will take something positive out of this and realize that they are not alone. I think that doctors should promote this website to people who have been diagosed with herpes so that we won't feel like we are the only ones fighting this battle. Thank you so much for reading. Now with that all being said, is it possible I could have been misdiagnosed when the hospital said I had a kidney infection? or Is it possible that a kidney infection can cause herpes or can herpes cause a kidney infection? Could I sue the hospital for providing false information or witholding any information because they did blood tests, a CT scan and xrays, wouldn't of herpes showed up?
